KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-9453 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-9453 and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-9453. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.2 Installation Considerations NOTE: The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the KINO-9453 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-9453 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-9453 and injury to the person installing the motherboard. 5.2.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard o When working with the KINO-9453, make sure that it is disconnected from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system. Before and during the installation of the KINO-9453 DO NOT: Remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are required for warranty validation. Use the product before verifying all the cables and power connectors are properly connected.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard o o o Keyboard Mouse RS-232 serial communications device 5.3 CPU, CPU Cooling Kit and DIMM Installation WARNING: A CPU should never be turned on without the specified cooling kit being installed. If the cooling kit (heat sink and fan) is not properly installed and the system turned on, permanent damage to the CPU, KINO-9453 and other electronic components attached to the system may be incurred. Running a CPU without a cooling kit may also result in injury to the user.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard WARNING: When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. DO NOT touch the pins at the bottom of the CPU. Step 1: Unlock the CPU retention screw. When shipped, the retention screw of the CPU socket should be in the unlocked position. If it is not in the unlocked position, use a screwdriver to unlock the screw. See Figure 5-1. Figure 5-1: Make sure the CPU socket retention screw is unlocked Step 2: Inspect the CPU socket.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 5: Align the CPU pins. Carefully align the CPU pins with the holes in the CPU socket. Step 6: Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly. Step 7: Lock the retention screw. Rotate the retention screw into the locked position. See Figure 5-2.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.3.2 Cooling Kit CF-479B-RS Installation Figure 5-3: IEI CF-479B-RS Cooling Kit An IEI Socket 479 CPU cooling kit can be purchased separately. The cooling kit comprises a CPU heat sink and a cooling fan. WARNING: Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste on the bottom of the CF-479B-RS heat sink. The thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heat dissipation.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Figure 5-4: Cooling Kit Support Bracket Step 4: Tighten the screws. Use a screwdriver to tighten the four screws. Tighten each nut a few turns at a time and do not over-tighten the screws. Step 5: Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector on the motherboard. Carefully route the cable and avoid heat generating chips and fan blades. See Figure 5-5.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.3.3 DIMM Installation WARNING: Only DDR2 memory module can be installed on the KINO-9453. Do not install DDR memory modules.

KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard B.1 DIO Interface Introduction The DIO connector on the KINO-9453 is interfaced to GIO ports on the iTE Super I/O chipset. The DIO has both 4-bit digital inputs and 4-bit digital outputs. The digital inputs and digital outputs are generally control signals that control the on/off circuit of external devices or TTL devices. Data can be read or written to the selected address to enable the DIO functions.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard B.3 Assembly Language Samples B.3.1 Enable the DIO Input Function The BIOS interrupt call INT 15H controls the digital I/O. An assembly program to enable digital I/O input functions is listed below. MOV AX, 6F08H Sets the digital port as input INT 15H Initiates the INT 15H BIOS call B.3.2 Enable the DIO Output Function The BIOS interrupt call INT 15H controls the digital I/O.

KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Appendix E ® E Intel Matrix Storage Manager Page 193
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard E.1 Introduction The Intel® ICH7R chipset can provide data protection for serial ATA (SATA) disks via the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager using one of three fault-tolerant RAID levels: RAID 1, 5 or 10. When using two hard drives, matrix RAID allows RAID 0 and RAID 1 functions to be combined, where critical files can be stored on RAID 1, and RAID 0 can be used for non-critical items such as software.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard CAUTION! Do not accidentally disconnect the SATA drive cables. Carefully route the cables within the chassis to avoid system down time. E.2 Features and Benefits Supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5 and 10 Supports connectivity to two or more disk drives Supported Operating Systems include: Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista E.3 Accessing the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager To access the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager, please follow the steps below.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 3: Save and Exit BIOS. After the SATA support option is enabled, save and exit the BIOS. Step 4: Reboot the system. Reboot the system after saving and exiting the BIOS. Step 5: Press Ctrl+I. During the system boot process, press Ctrl+I when prompted to enter the RAID configuration software. Step 6: Configure the RAID settings. Use the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager to configure the RAID array. Brief descriptions of configuration options are given below.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 1: Select “Create RAID Volume.” Use the arrow keys to highlight Create RAID Volume and press ENTER. See Figure E-1. Figure E-1: Matrix Storage Manager Main Menu Step 2: Name the RAID volume. Enter a name for the RAID volume, or press ENTER to accept the default volume name. Upper and lower case alphabetic, numeric, space, and underscore characters are all applicable for naming an array. See Figure E-2.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 3: Choose the RAID level. Select a RAID level from the list. RAID levels include RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10. See Figure E-3. NOTE: RAID 0 and RAID1 levels require a minimum of two hard drives. RAID 10 level requires a minimum of four hard drives. RAID5 level requires a minimum of three hard drives.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 4: Select the Stripe Size. Select a stripe size from the list. See Figure E-4. Figure E-4: Select the Stripe Size Step 5: Enter the Volume Capacity. Enter the volume capacity, or press ENTER to accept the default capacity. See Figure E-5.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 6: Create the RAID Volume. Press ENTER to create the RAID volume as specified. See Figure E-6. Figure E-6: Create the RAID Volume Step 7: Create RAID Volume Verification. After reading the warning, press Y to create the RAID volume as specified, or N to return to the Create RAID Volume menu. See Figure E-7.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard E.4.2 Deleting a RAID Volume WARNING! All data stored on the member drives of a RAID volume are destroyed during the RAID deletion process. Make sure any data to be saved has been moved or backed up before deleting a RAID volume. Step 1: Select “Delete RAID Volume.” Use the arrow keys to highlight Delete RAID Volume and press ENTER. See Figure E-8.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 2: Select RAID Volume to be Deleted. Use the arrow keys to highlight the RAID volume to be deleted and press ENTER. See Figure E-9.

See Figure E-10.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 4: Non-RAID Disks. After deleting the RAID volume, the disks belonging to the volume will be shown as non-RAID disks. See Figure E-11. Step 0: Figure E-11: Non-RAID Disks E.4.3 Resetting a Disk to Non-RAID WARNING! All data stored on the disk drive of a RAID volume is destroyed when resetting it to non-RAID. Make sure any data to be saved has been moved or backed up before resetting a disk to non-RAID.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 1: Select “Reset Disk to Non-RAID.” Use the arrow keys to highlight Reset Disk to Non-RAID and press ENTER. See Figure E-12.
